Cutting Club Chicago
A SALON THAT SPECIALIZES IN GENDER NEUTRAL BARBERING.
About
Whitney Welch is the owner of Cutting Club Chicago and has over eleven years of industry experience. She began her training at Paul Mitchell The School in St. Louis, where she fell in love with both men’s haircutting and makeup artistry. After graduating, she left her hometown in pursuit of a career in Chicago. Upon arriving, she quickly became a part of the unique men’s salon culture and worked for top salons where she trained with American Crew and Kevin Murphy. Cutting Club started out as a business catered to men’s hair based off of her experience in the field. However, as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community herself, Whitney saw the need for gender affirming beauty businesses and has transitioned to gender neutral barbering. Whitney welcomes clients of all gender and identities and specializes in scissor- forward cuts, lived-in styles and collaborative consultations. Currently, Whitney focuses her energy full-time on gender neutral barbering and haircutting.
